Data Center Dynamics, a full-service information provider tailored to the design, building and operation of data centers, recently consolidated its previously regionalized industry awards into a larger, more prestigious acknowledgment and celebration of outstanding innovation in our era of digital transformation.

“The future of any industry depends on the quality of the young people it attracts,” says Christian Belday, on behalf of the award sponsor, Microsoft. “The data center industry is no different and the historically low profile of data centers as a career choice, combined with increasing management and operational complexity plus local shortages of suitably qualified staff, places a premium on attracting new blood into the industry."

Belday concludes, "It is vitally important for the data center industry to bring up the next generation of Engineers, so we are delighted to support this award category and to continue engaging our best and brightest for the challenges ahead.”
